Hey Rich good to see you.... The Problem with Trying to Capture the Air
Pressure number is that bumps equate to spikes on the Air Pressure Gauge.
My original thought was to use a Compression gauge mounted on each wheel
line.... but then the Spikes would be what I read rather then a high average
Pressure.
